(Senior) Finance Controller (all genders)

You will directly report to the Associate Director of Finance and you'll be the finance partner for our core revenue and cost drivers and help build a controlling function that scales with the company. This is a growth role: you'll start by mentoring our FP&A team member, and in the mid-term take over leadership of the controlling function.

• Shareholder reporting (NCSoft): Deliver the monthly management P&L and the quarterly consolidated balance sheet and P&L on time and in the shareholder's templates. Provide preliminary figures within a few days of month-end. Keep a clean bridge between management P&L and statutory figures.
• Budget and forecast: Own the annual budget and a rolling forecast. Turn the overhead budget into a working budget-control process, with cost-center owners, monthly actual-vs-budget reviews and follow-up actions.
• Business partnering: Be the finance counterpart for Revenue Generation / Ad Monetisation, User Acquisition, User Payments (payouts and rewards) and the G&A cost centers, with profitability as the focus.
• Cost control: Build levers and tracking for the largest cost blocks: personnel, SaaS, cloud, consulting, and payment fees (PayPal, FX).
• Analysis: Run variance analysis against budget, forecast and weekly flash, build scenario models, and prepare quarterly business reviews.
• Data integrity: Establish Metabase/Looker as a reliable source of finance KPIs. Reconcile BI data against invoices and the ledger, own the KPI definitions and remove double counts and manual add-ons.
• Liquidity: Work with Treasury on the liquidity forecast (network payout timing, UA spend, user cash-outs).
• Interface with accounting: Work with the Accounting Lead on the in-house month-end close, including accruals input, cut-off, and cost center and chart of accounts design in DATEV.
• Team: Mentor and review the work of our junior FP&A team member, and grow into the leadership of the controlling function in the mid-term.

• 6+ years in controlling or FP&A, with at least 2 years in a scale-up or digital B2C business; mobile apps, gaming or ad-tech is strongly preferred.
• Proven experience reporting to a corporate or strategic shareholder or a PE owner, including multi-entity consolidation and delivering to external templates under deadline.
• End-to-end ownership of a full budget and forecast cycle, including building driver-based models.
• Self-sufficient with data: hands-on with a BI tool (Metabase/Looker) and advanced Excel/Google Sheets
• Solid accounting foundation (accruals, FX, revenue recognition), with enough IFRS/HGB knowledge to reconcile management and statutory figures.
• Fluent English (written and verbal). German is a strong plus, given our work with PwC, DATEV and the local entities.
